- Exploring our essential question for this year, "Old Enough to Make Change". Student brainstormed what types go things that they are old enough to do. Some responses were; walk to the store by themselves, babysit, cook a meal, save money, have a later bed time, care for a pet and many more. As we consider to explore this idea, students will begin to make connections to not only their everyday life, but the potential impact that they can have on other peoples' lives.
- Reviewing what students already knew about place vale and building upon that knowledge to explore place value up to the ten millions place. To do this, students played games, utilized Montessori materials, collaborated in sorting and ordering activities, solving for mystery numbers based on clues, and representing numbers in multiple numerical forms and words.
- Went on a walking field trip with our buddy class to a near by green space to learn not in and from nature. Our class did an amazing job modelling being safe crossing the streets and staying within the designated boundaries, as well as engaging their buddies in friendly conversation and the trip activities So many exciting things were taking place on our trip; observing seasonal changes, an alphabet nature scavenger hunt, name building with nature materials found at the park, and insect exploration (so many ladybugs!)
- Made a lot of progress on our name mandalas. See a few of our beautiful finished ones below.
